Crude Monopoly

Happy Monday!

Just wanted to drop a note to those of you sticking with me while I get things going again … This time next week we’ll have loaded up the studio along with some antiques and what else of my life I don’t mind paying to mave 3,000 miles & we’ll be getting ready for one last party night in LA before flying back home to buckle down and get things running for real.

I hope to be up and recording again by August 8 … and from there I hope to have at least a track or two out for review and collaboration 2 weeks from there.

I’ve had “Polar Bear Club” in my head for months … so she’s first on the list. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.  It will be the first of many, many tracks to come!

Until then, if you’re socal family: I’ll see you soon!  If your HBG family, well – don’t miss me too much!

All my love,

Casse

I found you on the roadside
Almost forgotten
in the shade of a receding storm …
Muddy and rain-swollen
of questionable past and unknown function
It won’t happen again
I swear

So yeah, adopted this gem on Saturday & I am going to make her work again … if not … I’m going to have to Frankenstein her into something exciting – either way – baby WILL live again!!

Of course I want you to stay tuned for updates on this project – but more importantly I want you to help me NAME her!!

Post your ideas here – I’ll narrow down to the best few and maybe we’ll be all democratic like and vote from that … or maybe I’ll just think of something completely different …

As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, life is hectic right now.  My studio is in a coma 3000 miles away, getting farther by the moment.  In the process, I’ll be doing my best to post demos and updates here so I can keep everyone in the loop.  Publicly, you can still find me every Thursday @ the Abbey Bar, and when other shows come up I’ll definitely let you know!!  Meanwhile, I do appreciate your love and patience in the process  

Anyway, as I’m posting and hitting the bricks and posting some more, don’t forget to hit me up if you’d like to get together on any of the demos you hear coming out.   I often feel my songs moving in different directions at the same time, and that is the biggest reason I decided to make Crude Monopoly more of a “collaborative experiment” than a traditional band.

The coming months are going to be great.  I’m glad to have you here, and grateful you tell your friends. 

All my love,
